Famous quotes containing the words full and/or rent:
“Swinging
clusters of red, the hedges are full of them,
red-currant red, a graceful
ornament or a merry smile.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
“We want some coat woven of elastic steel, stout as the first, and limber as the second. We want a ship in these billows we inhabit. An angular, dogmatic house would be rent to chips and splinters, in this storm of many elements. No, it must be tight, and fit to the form of man, to live at all; as a shell is the architecture of a house founded on the sea.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
